The black hole of iTunes Essentials.
Tags:Watch out for the black hole called iTunes Essentials. If you are using iTunes you can go to their music store and access a section called Essentials. HOLY COW. They have playlists in there that are amazing. Presented as three levels, they hit on The Basics, Next Steps, and Deep Cuts - each level presents more and more music to you - including many forgotten favorites. One of the ones I totally love is called Sunday Mornings - tons of my favs are listed there. You can look through Artists, Genres, etc. Make sure you have some time on your hands when you dive in there...
And, a thank you to those of you who have sent me emails over the last couple days and weeks. I am making my way through them...it is great to hear from you.

hahahh yes. I too discovered this last summer. I love the R&B imixes and Hip Hop ones. Did you also know that in addition to buying just songs you can search radio & bilboard charts from now to way back?!? For a sentimental person its so great from me to be able to remience this way!!!

What a good tip! As a newbie to iPodlandia, I appreciate the excellent pointer. I would not have found it otherwise. Cheers.

Yup, I am convinced that iTunes will be my ultimate downfall. I spend way too much time (and money) there!

You are making the iPod look sooooo good. I've wanted one for a while, and with the recent drop in price on the photo iPods, it definitely make sense. I'm just trying to hold on for a few more weeks. But your posts are making it soooo tempting to do it now.
Breathe. It's just another week or so. I can't wait.

To blog or not to blog, that is the question.
Ali, I've really enjoyed reading yours and am thinking of doing my own. It looks like a great way to record sharable thoughts and daily meanderings. Looks like scrapbooking is not the only inspiration you give to others.
AND, btw - I love all white bedding. Pre-children I had that and loved it. I could live in Pottery Barn if they would just let me. :-)
